Lapis — Strict Focus Timer

Lapis is a strict focus timer for people who've tried every focus app and still can't build the habit. No pause. No quit. No streaks you can fake. You either did the work or you didn't. That's the whole contract. Your focus score is a stone. It climbs when you show up for seven days straight and drops when you skip. Not one great day. Not one bad day. Seven days, on repeat. The way a coach would measure you, not the way a casino would. Stay consistent and your stone climbs from Coal to Diamond, with rare stones beyond for anyone who keeps going. WHAT YOU GET - A strict timer that can't be gamed. Every session is final. - 28 stones across 7 tiers. Coal to Diamond is the first 17; 11 more wait beyond. - A seven-day rolling average that won't let one good day fool you. - An honest completion check that keeps your record clean, or admits when it isn't. - An Identity Card you can share when someone asks what level you're on. - Every future stone added to the collection, free forever. One purchase, unlock forever. No subscription, no ads, no login required. WHO THIS IS FOR - The student who downloaded a focus app in September, forgot about it by October, and is now three weeks from exams wondering why nothing sticks. - Writers, coders, researchers, founders doing deep work on hard problems. - People grinding monk mode, strict focus, or a real focus streak. - ADHD brains who need a strict timer, not a gentle one. - Anyone looking for a Forest alternative with real teeth. HOW IT WORKS 1. Pick a project. Pick a duration: 25, 45, 60 minutes, or your own. 2. Three-second countdown. No pause. Go. 3. At the end, one question: did you focus? 4. Yes = minutes count. No = they don't, but you get credit for being honest. 5. Your seven-day average drives your stone. Show up for seven days and watch it climb. WHAT LAPIS IS NOT - Not a pomodoro app with endless pauses and snoozes. - Not a task manager, calendar, or productivity suite. - Not a leaderboard. It's you vs. your seven-day average. QUESTIONS PEOPLE ASK Can I pause the timer? No. Pause it and the minutes don't count. That's the whole point. Is this a pomodoro timer? No. Pomodoro lets you pause and snooze. Lapis is closer to strict pomodoro. Start it, finish it, or it doesn't count. Does it work for ADHD focus? Yes. A strict focus timer is what an ADHD brain actually needs. No negotiation, no soft option to bail. What if I get interrupted? The session ends. You answer one question: did you focus? Of course you can lie. Nothing stops you. But you'd be lying about a stone on your own phone, which makes Lapis a strange place to do it. How is this different from a pomodoro alternative or Forest alternative? Most of them let you pause, quit, or restart. Lapis doesn't. One question at the end. One honest answer. Do I need an account? No. No login, no cloud, nothing leaves your phone. How long until I see results? Your seven-day rolling average updates daily. Show up for seven days and your stone climbs. Skip a day and it drops. If you want cute, you'll hate this. If you want honest, welcome.
